Re: Re:you forgot something

Actually, HP and LotR aren't just in different genres, they're aimed at entirely different audiences. The Lord of the Rings, with it's huge scope and majesty, is an ADULT'S book. HP is a KID'S book. Of course the characters are going to behave differently.

Sam, can you give me an example of a kid's book where all the good guys have perfect morals? Not the LotR, a kid's book. It seems rather unfair on J K Rowling to have her work criticised just because it's not at the level of the LotR. Of course it isn't. Different audiences, different levels.
